Level 91 Twinks

So I was wondering with all the 640 crafted pieces being available for 91, how viable would it to make a level 91 twink?

Let's say you can get 3 pieces on a level 91. Would it scale down in skirmishes/bg's or would it retain its same ilevel?

Also technically with enough time and gold a level 91 can upgrade those 640 pieces into i believe 675??

Not 675, depends on the slot. What everyone should aim for ...
Prof.: Alchemy / Engineering
Weapon: 660 Warlords 1/3
Trinket 1: 620 requires Alchemy
Trinket 2: 670 Warlords 2/3
Helmet: 670: Warlords 3/3 and as an engineer you can have the cool look of the new goggles
there are also 3 Trinkets 600 with Versatility passive and an resistance on-use which may come in handy.

Why not Chests / Legs? 'cause they would be above 600 and can not be enchanted. Staying below you can still use the old enchants on them.

These are my first thoughts on it.

damn thats some serious thinking!! I already crafted the engineering goggles and traded a 640 cloth piece for a 640 plate leg before reading your post.
Kind of rushed as I plan to take a break from WOD but had some gold left over and wanted to test if we could get an OP twink going on again like 80 and 85 MOP blues with the tools Blizzard gave us.

The weapon upgraded to 3/3 would definitely be BIS. but I decided id settle with the garrosh BOA for now. If I ever come back to wod, ill keep that in mind.
Currently have just the 640 head and 640 legs.... I might craft a chest just for the pure stats.

Also, I did a skirmish with the 640 pieces and they do not scale down!!! so very overpowered. Have not tested with bgs yet, but I am assuming the same.

Here is my current 91 dk , she needs a lot of work

wow so after capping my xp....to get some gear before levleing to 92, it looks like i can que with the 90's!!
Both in bgs and skirmishes....
i was the only 91 in both of them...

the non crafted pieces all scale to 590 so it might actually be worth going to 99 with full 600+ pieces to farm the 90s much like the 20 bracket(MOP 90 with the 24/29s now gonna be the 99's.

There had been a hotfix, now all level 90 characters are in the same bg / arena with the 91-99 ones. So it should be more active now.
The level 90 bracket has been merged into the level 91-99 bracket.

Still not quiet sure which level will be the best from 91-99. 91 seems strongest if you are going to do a lot open world pvp. I will do some research in the next days, comparing a BiS 91 with a BiS 99.

*edit
Just compared all available items and the earliest level to get level 600+ on every slot is 95. So i will include a BiS 95 too.

So, boosted a paladin to 90 and leveled her to 91. Started to mess around a bit and found the first bug which has a huge impact.

Mastery unbuffed: 41.67%
Mastery "normal" buffed": 60.25%
Mastery "arena" buffed: 88.08%

What happened? I did an arena match and left. You keep the level 99 scaling. Doesn't seem to be intended.

Trying out a battleground and get raid buffed, will report back soon.
*edit You will only keep Battle Shout which is an 10% AP increase, nothing special here. Seems only to happen with mastery 'cause you don't get an %-increase. 213 Mastery "normal" and 547 "arena / bg".

*edit²
As i expected you can really mess around with 2nd stats. did arena with itemlevel 31 gear, had the exact same stats as my 483 gear 'cause of scaling up to 590. So what you can do right now is look for some "level appropriate bis gear" which has the 2nd stats you prefer and use them to boost to 590.

*edit³
Yesterday i saw a brewmaster in low-level-bg who was top damage by more than a mile and top heal far away, too. Looked him up nad he was using http://www.wowhead.com/item=12252 at 34. The bonus armor seems to be forgotten by the devs. Don't wanna know, how that beauty would scale in arenas :)

*and another update
Did some testing using socket gear. It is not worth it cause the gems will not scale up.

'reminder
Have to test enchants and run speed.

end result. Still need to get last 640 piece.
Not as OP as MOP blues, but combined with prideful gear it could be some fun if you are bored at 100 already.
And then if you have lots of resources....and gold upgrade those pieces to 3/3 and wreck lol.

Yeah as long as you pvp it will get upscaled. And bonus armor is the "boss stat" right now for any tank twink. blood dks especially cause they have access to special plate items with bonus armor and a better scaling than warriors and paladins. saw some 69 and 79 twinks these days which pulled out 10 times the amount of damage than the 2nd one and more than double the healing of healers ... so.
